Luke's POV

I got in my car and put the keys in the ignition. Why am I chasing after a girl I just met and knew nothing about? It doesn't matter, I need to see if she's okay.

I pulled out of the parking lot hoping the guys wouldn't see me. It took about 15 minutes to get there because of traffic. She must already be in side. I walked up to her door and stopped myself before I knocked. Why am I here? What was I planning in saying? My palms got sweaty, and I could feel the butterflies in my stomach. Come on Luke, man up. There's no reason to get nervous around her. It's just Micheal's sister.

Erica's POV

I heard a knock on the front door.

"The door is unlocked Micheal."

"Erica?"

That wasn't Micheal... I ran down the steps to see who it was but he saw me. Why is Luke at my house? Is he here to yell at me?

Dammit. You stuttered. Now she knows your nervous, and I probably didn't hurt her feelings. Why am so dumb? I looked down at the ground, embarrassed.

"It's okay, I'm sorry I ran off and... Started this."

It wasn't her fault, she tripped.

"That's okay, I understand."

What know Luke? What have you gotten yourself into? Stop freaking out over this girl.

Erica's POV

Was I seeing okay? Was this a dream? Luke is really in my house apologizing? He really came over just for me?

"So..."

Ugh, I always make things awkward. I hate that about myself.

I must've looked sad because he came up to me and gave me a hug.

"I'm really not mad, I'm sorry."

I was blushing again, I didn't want it to get too awkward so I decided to change the subject.

"Do you know when everyone else is coming back?"

"No idea. It will probably be awhile. Wanna do something to pass the time?"

I wasn't sure what I wanted to do.

"How about a movie?"

"Sounds great."

"Cool, you can pick the movie."

After I came back downstairs the movie was in and Luke was in the couch. I plopped down next to him.

"What movie?"

"You'll see."

I could see Luke smirking. I had no idea what movie he picked.

Of course. Mean Girls.

We were about 15 minutes into the movie and I realized I was lying on the couch with Luke, and his arm wrapped around me. I couldn't believe this was real. After another 10 minutes I drifted off to sleep.

"Erica."

I could hear a hushed voice echoing in my ear.

"Erica!"

I woke up to see Micheal screaming in my ear.

"What do you want?!"

Wait, Luk- he was gone. He must have left before the others got here.

"Is she up?"

Ashton asked as he poked his head out of the kitchen.

"Yeah, she's up."

"What time is it?"

I feel like I only slept for half an hour.

"It's 4:00."

4:00? I slept my day away!

"4:01 now."

Luke was back. Just hearing him talk made me smile. Wait, did Luke tell the boys about us?

"Hey Erica can I talk to you?"

Why would Luke have to talk to me? What was he going to say? My head started spinning as my mind raced with thoughts.
